Amazon’s S3 – AWS service

I’ve got nothing but good things to say about Amazon S3 (simple storage solution). I’ve been redoing http://suletzki.com and decided to put all the blog photos on S3. I’ve also been doing backups to S3 for my server using s3sync. It’s super easy, it works, it’s ridiculously cheap and it reduces the need to keep a ton of crap on my server (i.e. images).

What I don’t get is their billing. They billed me for 5 cents. No complaints… but, aren’t the credit card fees for doing that a lot more than 5 cents? I didn’t know micro-credit was viable yet.
